Cognitive dissonance? Do you mean like contending that horseracing doesn't belong in urban settings while the Derby, Preakness, and Belmont and at least half of the Breeders Cups are all conducted in -- an urban setting.
I don't recall the urban settings scaring away Euros or Japanese -- although maybe Tyler Gafflione felt emboldened to mug the Japanese horse in last year's derby due to the -- urban setting? I wonder what the Hong Kong Jockey Club thinks about this?
Would be nice if we didn't also have to contend with "friendly" fire like this on top of all the other issues.
